About Me

CURRENT MISSION

María: Visit EVERY SINGLE nation before I die, Benjamín: Cortar algunas cabezas

ABOUT ME

We are a young couple of travellers that has just come back from a trip around the World that took us more than two years. Our life back in Spain is not half as exciting, but here we are... saving some more to hit the road again. In the meantime, we are working, studying, going out with friends... carrying out normal lives. We are shinny happy people.

We live in the most beautiful city there is, you'll see...

PHILOSOPHY

Sense of humor is a really serious matter... and nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

After crushing into many couches during our trip we are finally back to our country and it is our turn to give back to this wonderful society that is CS.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I (María) have surfed several couches in different countries, with Ben and alone and I never had a bad experience =)
